The final render. It took about three minutes to render in Eevee, weighing in at a little more than 2.8 million faces, or 2.7 million vertexes.
This shot is more of a just for fun render. The intro and main screen of Command and Conquer: Red Alert featured a shot in this sort of style.
A subtle background animation.
The convoy is comprised entirely of these tanks intended to look like the Mammoth tanks of the Command and Conquer game franchise.
Both the material and 3D mesh are pretty low detail since they do not appear very close to the camera.
This wire frame shows the relatively low detail of the tank model.
Much of the tank is made of individual parts with intersecting geometry.
The ground in the background is covered in these crystals meant to look like the Tiberium crystals of Command and Conquer.
These column like formations are not prominently featured in the final scene, but are meant to be large features with the smaller crystal formations growing around the base.
One of the greatest game franchises in history is Command and Conquer. That's not an opinion. That's a fact ;) This personal project is my homage to that great series. A convoy of Mammoth tanks, the most powerful tank in the games, rumbles along a cliff side pass through a tiberium red zone. What unfortunate foe lies at their destination to tremble and crumble at what they are about to receive?
The captions of the images tell a little more about the scene and the assets in it. I have created a tutorial on creating the crystals that blanket the plain in the background. The crystal asset is also available in my store.
